Alright so this is a bit late seeing as how I've been back for hmm...almost two months now haha, but this is the first time visiting the forum since then. So! I spent two weeks spread out between Sydney and Cairns, and I absolutely LOVED it!! Sydney is a great city with a few lovely beaches (Bondi and Manly were the two I visited). I visited the blue mountains on a tour, went to the aquarium and zoo (didn't expect the platypus to be so small =S). As for Cairns, the Great Barrier Reef is absolutely stunning!! I spotted a sea turtle while snorkeling, which I didn't expect since it was fairly shallow =X. I tried Kangaroo, which was delicious!!! as well as Emu, not so delicious, and Crocodile, which I found surprisingly sweet. Now I am considering (though I haven't looked into it too much yet) of either taking a semester of Uni. there or get a worker's visa to travel around for a year. Either way I am definitely going back!

Here are some of my favorite pictures from the trip!

I'm proud of this picture, the reflection of the bridge was intentional (took this as well)

Dad caught the perfect moment (HUGE ship)



Well that's all for now, thanks for sitting through it all =p, I'll post more pictures at request =)

I love the one with the reflection. Really clever.

Good to see you had a good time (but such generic places to take photos :D Surely you saw something striking too?)

lol Nay, the problem is with generic pictures is that they are generic for a reason! i.e. they are of something everyone wants a picture memory of.

Sounds like you're having a blast, boda. That beach looks lovely.

/flirt seeing Sydney lit up at night flying back in from the UK.

Nice Pics Boda - I especially love the Sydney Opera House - it always reminds me of turtles shagging.

Not so sure about eating the Australian Coat of Arms though - that's a bit ordinary.http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/7/78/Australian_Coat_of_Arms.png
